The Suzuki Jimny also well known as Jimmy:
The Suzuki Jimny is a compact 4WD. Two body styles are available: a hard
top and convertible. The Jimny replaced the popular Sierra/Samurai model
in most markets in 1999, though its predecessor remains in production.
The Jimny is equipped with the same 1.3 L 16-valve four-cylinder
electronically fuel injected engine as its predecessor. A ladder type
chassis and a dual ratio transfer case is standard, unlike many
competing compact 4WDs which lack a low range, and are strictly in the
crossover category.
The Jimny's vacuum-locking hubs allow the vehicle to be shifted from 2WD
to 4WD while travelling at up to 100 km/h (62 mph). Shifting to low
range requires the vehicle to be stopped, but there is no need to exit
the vehicle. Newer Jimnys feature electronic "push-button" selectable
four-wheel drive.
The Jimny features large windows, giving excellent visibility, apart
from a rather serious blind spot caused by the oversized "B" pillar. The
large amount of glass also creates a greenhouse effect, and the Jimny
comes with air conditioning as a standard feature.
Two models of the Jimny are available in some markets, the standard hard
top, and a canvas roofed "Cabrio" version. Both models come in JX and
JLX specifications. These are fairly standard designations across the
Suzuki off road range, with the JLX being the fully-optioned "luxury"
version. In the case of the Jimny, the JLX adds roof rails, power
steering, power windows, electronically adjustable exterior mirrors, and
several interior comfort improvements. Both models are available in 5
speed manual or 4 speed automatic gearbox. There is also a 2WD option,
only available in 5 speed manual.
History:
The first vehicle marketed as the Suzuki Jimny (in 1974), is properly
known as the LJ50. In Australia, the "Jimny" name was soon dropped. The
LJ80 was an updated version, followed by the SJ410 and SJ413. A version
of the SJ413 known as the Samurai was released in the US. The series
from LJ80 to SJ413 was known as the Sierra in Australia, and remained
the Jimny in some markets.
The new Jimny was released in 1999, and now bears the same name in all
markets. The 1999 release used the G13BB EFI engine, replaced by the
M13AA VVT engine in 2005, in conjunction with some interior redesign.
